Henrik
Lund Jørgensen
The historic event, contemporary history presented parallel to the
subjective conception of the self, is a general feature in Henrik
Lund Jørgensen’s works.
The experience, in the work of the artist, is continually centred
on the borderland between the real and the fictive. The works oscillates
between an inquisitive documentary approach, and a reality where realism
subversively gives way to the personal experience and understanding
of the world. The notion that also is based on urban stories, such
as myths, legends and fantastic stories. In the expression of the
works we are allowed to have a presentiment that what is told is played
against our conceptions and expectations.
Lund Jørgensen is working with audiovisual media and photography.
The audiovisual technique is not arbitrarily chosen but is in its
form in obvious relation to the narratives the artist builds into
his works. The video media as an extension of the memory and the brains
associations and production of meaning. The power lies in the image
itself, the construction, the collage, and these often seem to illustrate
gaps in the memory.
